Installation guide

ecom-project directory handles the logic for the front end and the ecommProject handles the logic for the backend. Sorry! for the weird naming conventions :).

1. Clone the git repository using the link https://github.com/mechXsteam/eccommerce-project.git or simply download the zip file.
2. First navigate to the directory ecommProject using: cd ecommProject in the terminal and run the command python manage.py runserver. It will start a development server at port: 8000. Create a superuser by providing the necessary credentials if you need to, using the command python manage.py createsuperuser. Once the superuser is created, you can access the admin panel at http://localhost:8000/admin/, enter the username and password that you provided at the time of superuser creation.
3. After that navigate to the ecom-project directory using: cd ecom-project from the root directory. Once you are in, run the command npm start in the terminal. It will fire off a development server on your local machine at port: 3000. Paste the URL http://localhost:3000/ in the browser to access the project.
